Full Description

{1} Recorded in 1967 when it was occupied by TV Aerial Ltd. Three-storey brick with slate roof. Exterior doors at right of top storey and at left and right on second floor. Top storey windows retain original small-pane cast iron frames. Wooden frames have recently been substituted in other two storeys. [photos]

{2} in 1899, it was G Scott & Co 'Fancy box' factory

[HER note 05/02/2025: the building has since been converted and undergone significant alteration. The northern three bays appear to have been demolished entirely and all the windows and doors replaced. Stone strings along the base of the windows of each storey removed, and brickwork around the windows comprehensively altered. Of the house that was located immediately to the north, only the door remains.]
